An editor of a down east republican-

Gen. Grant hasjust made, in Missouri,
one of the longest speeches of his life, in
which he went into a comparison be-

Yet in all this speech, long for him, we
find no word of praise for Gen. Garfield,
not even the most distant reference to
the Republican candidate.
The Reporter would feel inclined not
to have Fred Grant take the stump for
Hancock.

In taking the census in Utah a puzzling
question arose. The enumerators could
not decide what to do with plural wives
in the classification list, which made no
provisions for that unlawful state of mat-
rimonial affairs, and refered the matter
to Superintendent Walker. Ought the
women to go in as married or single?
The Superintendent evaded the difficulty
by directing them to take the women’s
word for it in all cases. It is to be hoped
their word will be better than that of the
Albany woman who insisted that her age
was thirty-three, though admitting that
her daughter had a boy of fourteen.

Senator Wallace has been chosen
chairman of the Democratic National
Committee, at the request of Gen. Han-
cock and with the advice of Mr, Tilden,
In order to arrange this, Hon. Wm. L.
Scott, of Erie, member of this state on
that committee has resigned, in order that
Mr. Wallace might take his place and be-
come chairman. Thisis a wise choice,
and the best selection that could have
heen made, Senator Wallace is one of
the shrewdest politicians in the party and
an organizer without a superior. He is
able and energetic and as chairman he
becomes the leader of the national dem-
ocracy. We are as much pleased with
this selection as with the nomination of
Hancock, Nothing more fitting could
have followed the work of the Cincinna-
ti convention. In fact, at every turn the

The books of DeGolyer & McClellan,
the Washington pavement-makers, when
produced before the Congressional Com-
mittee, showed that out of a $700,000 con-
tract the firm cleared a profit of $300,000.
Among the disbursements was a sum of
$97,000 paid to the District Ring, to lob-
byists like Parsons, the Marshal of the
District, and to attorneys or counsel—
among whom Mr, Garfield appeared as
receiving a fee of $5,000. Among the let-
ters produced was one from Mr. G. R.

A PROMINENT REPUBLICAN OU1
FPORLHANCOCK.
Major-Gen, Hancock.
My Dear General: I take the earliest
opportunity to congratnlate you upon
vour nomination and to assure you, lifes
long Whig and Republican that I am
of my most hearty support. I belong to
a very numerous and very staunch old
Silver~gray Republican family. With
one solitary exception, there never was
one of them known to vote the Demos
cratic ticket, but I venture to say that
toey will to a man vote for you. They
cannot consistently do otherwise. :
You, sir, embody the views and senti-
ments in regard to the great questions
of the day that we have entertained
since the war closed. They are the same
that actuated Gen. Grant when he laid
down those liberal terms of surrender to
Gen. Lee. They are the same that actu-
ated my poor friend Raymond, when he
Gouge
Thad Stevens. I believe Gen, Grant
would support you tosday, did not the
exigencies of his situation forbid it.
And Henry J. Raymond, were he alive,
would support you, too, unless the ex-
igencies of the New York Times re
strained him. He was compelled at an
early day to smother the sentiments he
had expressed in the address of the
Philadelphia Convention, to abandon
his career in legislative halls and to
change the tone of the Times, or, as Mr.
Jones, pur manager and partner, insist
ed, the pipes would be ruined. (I be-
lieve I offered to pay the damages at
the time, but that was considered im-
practicable.) It was a bitter pill, but it
bad to be swallowed. Thad Stevens bad
succeeded through a Congress which
misrepresented the country in engrafts
ing his policy upon the Republican par-
ty. And tho a majority of the party
as I firmly believe, were di ted, it
was fastened upon them, and there was
no way of geting rid of it, Thus for
years a vast number of us, good Republi»
cans, have been compelled to be help-
less supporters of a policy we believe to
be the very worst that could be devised.
An opportunity is presented us now for
the first time with any show of success
to vote in mccordance with our convic
tions, and I am sure we shall do it most
joyfully, With great respect and esteem
believe me yours faithfully,
Leoxarp W, JgroMe.

THE TURNING OF THE POLITICAL
TIDE.
From the St, Louis Republican,
A Republican club of sixty-five voters
met last night at the corner of fifth and
Myrtle streets, Edward Crowley in the
chair, and adopted the following signifi
cant resolutions:
Whereas, The Republican party has
seen fit to nominate a man for the Presi-
dency in whose integrity we have no
confidence, and who we belive has no
abiding interest in the welfare of the na-
tion only so far as it can minister to his
paltry personal ambition; and
Whereas, The Democratic party has
placed in nomination for the same office
a man of integrity, ability and courage;
therefore; be it
Resolved, That we, a band of candid
Republicans, who believe in adhering
to the true principles upon which our
republican form of government was
founded, have seyered our connection
with that party Bovened by Rings and
cliques, and cheerfully pledge ourselves
to apport the candidacy of Hancock
and English during the ensuing cam-~
paign, and promise to use all honorable
means to insure their triumph at the
coming national election,
Resolved, That a copy of these resolu-
tions be sent to Gen, Hancock, the next
President of the United Btates, to Will
iam H, English, the next Vice-President
and tothe various military organizations
throughout the State of Missouri.

The democratic candidate for the Vice
Presidency was bora in Scott county,
Ind. August 27, 1822, studied for three
vears at the University of South Hanover
nd., studied law and was admitted to
the Bar, in 1846, but devoted his time
chiefly to agriculture, being the owner
of an extensive estate, He was a clerk
of the Indiana House of Representatives
in 1843, in the Treasury Department at
Washington during the administration
of President Polk, 1844-48, and of the
Indiana Constitutional Convention of
1850, In the following year he was
elected to the Indiana Legislatore and
immediately chosen its Speaker, a re
markable compliment to so young a man
during his first term of legislative office.
In 1852 he was elected to Congress and
was three times re-elected, serving from
1853 to 1881. He has not since then
held any important office, but has be
come a prominent element in Indiana
polities through his wealth and his long
experience. He has resided for many
years at Indianapolis as president of the
First National Bank of that city, his
former cashier having been Jobn C
New, lately Treasurer of the United Sta-
tes. In 1878 Mr. English retired from
the presidency of the bank and Mr, New
took his place. The name of Mr. Eng-
lish has frequently been mentioned of
late as a possible candidate for the
Presidency, and his almost unanimous
nomination for the second place on the
ticket is good evidence of his popularity
in Indiana and the Western States gens
erally.

FOR HANCOCK IN PENN-

Gregnsburg, Pa., July 2.—Westmore-
land County, long known as the star of
the west for her rousing Democratic
majorities, was ablaze with Hancock and
English enthusiasm to-night. Never
was there such an immense demonstra-
tion in this county. Four thousand visi.
tors from the surrounding towns and
townships attended the ratification
meeting held in the Court-House. The
town was brilliantly illnominated. Gen-
eral Richard Coulter, of yolunteer fame,
was President. General Fearson, of
Pittsburg, who has deserted the Repub-
licans to support Hancock, made a
rousing speech, a summary of which I
send. General Pearson said: “I have
been a life-long Republican. Since 1854,
when the party was first organized, I
have been one of its most ardent sup-
porters, Although nota voter at that
period. I attended the recent Republi-

that mighty rebel army depended upon
him, for the enemy were overrunning
